LIGHT SOLAR SCREEN FABRICīoth light and dark colors have their own strengths and weaknesses, so it is important to determine what is of value to the end user. The images below show the same openness factors in a light and dark color and may make the above paragraphs easier to understand. People are always surprised to learn that dark colors in solar screen offer superior view through and are best if you wish to preserve your view. Dark colors absorb more light, therefore reducing glare.
The inverse is true for optical properties as light colors let more light through, resulting in higher glare levels. Darker colors have lower reflectivity and higher absorption and as a result transfer more heat into a room. In terms of thermal performance, lighter colors have higher reflectivity values and therefore reflect more thermal energy out of the room. Openness factor is a technical measurement and is not impacted by fabric color, however color selection does play a big part in the performance of the shade. Our solar screen offering ranges from Privacy (<1%) to 15%, allowing you to select the correct openness for your need. Smaller numbers have less space, therefore representing a tighter weave and letting less light in. Openness factor (OF) is presented as a percentage and relates to how tightly the yarns are woven, thus explaining the ratio of open space to yarns in the weave. The most common term in solar screen fabrics is Openness Factor. View: If you have a beautiful view, you may not want to hide it, but you do not want to forgo a shade all together. Privacy: The level of privacy in a solar screen can vary greatly, so it is important to consider the use of the space and what it requires. Insulation: Choosing the right shade fabric can help to control heating and cooling costs. Additionally, shades can help control the light, reducing glare or letting more light into a darker space. Blocking out harmful UV rays can help protect the flooring, furniture, and art in your home/office. Sun Control: Sun control is the main reason people seek out shades. When selecting a solar screen fabric, there is more to consider than just aesthetics.
